Public Release October 25, 2020
Washington's Continentals suffer a lack of food, clothing and shelter as it struggles to get through the winter at Valley Forge. At the same time, it must contest a British move into Darby in search of forage. Captain \"light horse Harry\" Lee distinguishes himself during this time. Americans also capture a British ship on the Delaware river. Washington fights with Congress to get what he needs to maintain and train his army.
